Wow. That’s pretty much all I can say about it. More than a $1,000 drop in the assets column. That is a pretty swift kick to you know where. But on the plus side – I erased almost $1,400 from my liabilities by continuing to pay off my debt. Also, as mentioned in my last post, my savings has passed the $1,000 mark – which makes me a tiny bit happy. But I’m not easing off the gas just yet. I need to keep working on both ends to get to a place where I feel comfortable.

The main thing I get when I look at this month’s report is how nice it feels to see the debt start to peel away, month-by-month. Besides my emergency fund, I’m not concerned about the assets column at all. Again, as a 28 year old, I’m just seeing this as a great time to spend a little money buying some stocks (through 401k, Roth IRA, brokerage) which will hopefully return and surpass the levels there were at about a year ago. I’m in no rush to sell, so I’m in no rush to panic.

…but that doesn’t mean I don’t see what’s going on…again…wow.
